My mom had purchased letters at Hobby Lobby that spell out my name. The plain white boring letters where starting to look depressing and since I'm not much of a painter I chose to cover them with scrapbook paper.
Here's how I did it:
I began with my remaining letter and the new paper I chose.
I traced the M on to the back side of the scrapbook paper. (Make sure the back side of the letter is facing you as well, this is where I messed up the first time...)
Now you have a copy of your letter. You will modge podge the paper to the letter.I used two coats on the wooden letter before I applied the paper and another two on top of the paper to make it stick.
After the glue dried, I trimmed the overlap. I suggest using a small razor or scissors.
Here is my finished M!
Here is all three letters together. I'm pretty proud of my myself for picking out a good matching paper.
Here's the far away view. Hope you enjoy this!
